How is the Sway Control device attached to the tow vehicle?

When you order the Curt it comes with a ball, it's the little ball that is welded onto a plate. That one is attached to the trailer, instructions included. The silver/stainless steel ball you will have to hire a welder to attach it to your ball hitch. We bought this Reese 26003 Reese Sway Control Adapter instead of having any welding done. It is not permanent and no need to hire a welder. Good Luck!

We have not used it yet, but my husband says you attach a ball, which comes with the sway bar, to your trailer hitch and the plate that comes with it, about 20 inches down on your tongue and your sway bar bolts into the plate. Then you place the sway bar on the ball. He just said if you go to YouTube and it will tell you just how to do it. Good luck!

Its very simple. There is a long loop that hooks over the headrest. The small loop can be adjusted to make the seat level and it has a clip for easier removal

The "anti-sway" part of the hitch is from the ball being press fit into the hitch itself. The post of the ball extends down through the hitch and is connected to the triangular pate at the bottom. The chains keep the ball assembly from rotating relative to the trailer, along with transferring tongue weight.... so, you will gain no anti sway unless the chains are connected. But, I don't think it would make any difference if the trailer was empty.

You don't really have to add anything, but if you want your load to ride more stable, then add an anti-wobble device. It will reduce the wobble where the tongue enters the hitch. As well, if your load is large/tall enough that it blocks the tail lights of your vehicle, then add a lighting device, so your brake lights/turn signals can be seen. Don't forget to secure your load.

the mirrors are electric and heated and mirrors tilt. You manually have to pull the mirrors up for the towing position.

That's where I mounted mine and they work great. They greatly reduced sway.

The stopper goes under the arm to give support to the sticky side of the base so when the vehicle hits a bump it limits the flex of the arm so it doesn't pull the base off of where it's secured

This Sway Bar Mount does not use any bushings. The mounts on both ends are similar to Tie Rod Ends. The kit contains all necessary parts.

Hello Jason, No, the sway bar in built into the system, it is a anti-sway bar. It is a bit noisy until broken in after use. We think it is an excellent product. This is our second purchase. The first one was stolen, alone with our truck last February. :O( Stuff happens. Cheers!

No , it will not. You need to have the yoke of the weight distribution chains locked to the tongue/frame . That's where you get the sway control . The trailer coupler and the ball move together as one unit. Do not grease the ball or coupler , as the grease can get into the "brake" lining that the ball is seated in. You can use just the ball , make sure you put the pin in the bottom , for safety

the mount included attaches to the windshield. The cradle remains in place when you remove the unit.

Yes, it is held in place by bungee type material that stretches over the center console. One complaint that I have is that every time I open it it pops off as there is no way to secure it.

You do not need an add on sway bar. This system includes weight distribution and sway control in one

No, it's only the post. There are some adjustment screws internal to it, the those are just for adjusting the suspension.

Yes. It's two components really. There's the weight distribution kit and the sway control. I put it on about a week ago. This is high quality stuff and although I haven't yet taken a trip, according to the guy who installed it for me, it should do a fantastic job. I haven't installed the sway part yet. I went to VA Beach awhile back and sway really wasn't a problem. I just want to really balance out the weight. I'm pulling a 27' Crossroads Z1 Toyhauler with a RAM 1500. Can't wait to get on the open road with it.

you lift the headrest up a little and slide the hook on and push the head rest back down. I love this product. very useful. we hang our jackets on them.or my purse.
